High Risk Ventures is proud to present our first shareware game! Cyclone features way-cool graphics and sound, and addicting and challenging game play. It's based on an old arcade game called Star Castle, in which you fly a spaceship around on a wrap-around screen, and attack an enemy base which sits in the middle of screen. The base protects itself with three rotating shield rings, heat-seeking mines, and a nasty plasma cannon. We've added a few things to the original game, including weapons for your ship, shields, bonus points, a challenge level, and more. There's also an 'original game' mode for those who want to play the game as it was originally designed.
This is a commercial-quality game, offered as shareware with a $10 registration fee. Call High Risk Ventures at (800) 927-0771 or email to highrisk@aol.com for more information.
 
High risk venture first brought us the commercial game Space Madness where the idea was to travel through space killing the enemies. Space Madness is one of the better releases in recent times. Following on the release of that game is Cyclone, High Risk Ventures first shareware game. This game is a copy of the old arcade game Star Castle that has gone the extra step. High risk has implemented the original game and then gone the extra step by having an enhanced version with extra graphics and sounds. In Cyclone you try and shoot out the protective rings and eventually kill the starbase. This sounds easier than it really is. The catch is that the starbase shoots back, making this a difficult objective. This is one of the better shareware releases and should not be overlooked. The graphics and sounds are what make this one a winner.
